June 5th, 2022 LUG Jam

When: Sunday, June 5th at 4:30 PM

Where : Generations Market and Restaurant 717 Lake Park Road, Carleton Place

We are very excited to announce we will have our first-person jam! We will be holding the jam under the big tent at Generations Market and Restaurant. Located on the shore of Mississippi Lake and offering great food and great beer I am sure you will have a great time. The tent has space for well over 150 people and is open sided so social distancing should not be an issue. For more details on the venue check out their web site.

Please note the jam is on a SUNDAY and is starting at 4:30 PM. This is more in line with the way we used to run our jams. Hope you can make it. After all this time we are looking forward to hearing everyone play and sing.

We are posting the jam set list so that you have an opportunity to practise the music prior to the jam. You may note that the set list is a little longer than it has been for several years. We are hoping to go back to the old format for our jams: running on a Sunday afternoon, with a longer set with a break part way through. We will be projecting the chords and lyrics during the jam.

As usual we have a copy of the set list’s chords and lyrics available in PDF format here:

For those with an iOS device with the OnSong app, you can get a copy of the set as an OnSong Archive here.

For people with a different song viewer application we also make the set available via a link in the song title to a ChordPro file.

May Jam Update

We had hoped to announce a return to an in-person jam this month. Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. As a result of the significant storms in Eastern and Southern Ontario, we have had to delay the jam until some time in June. The location we had chosen suffered damage and we cannot proceed with a jam until things are repaired. We feel that we should be able to announce the jam soon so stay tuned and keep strumming!
